Problem overview

Some Dodge Charger owners report experiencing alternator charging issues due to a faulty engine wiring harness, which can complicate repairs, especially since the part has been discontinued since 2020. These owners note that a bad section of the wiring harness can lead to persistent charging problems, and in some cases, a complete wiring harness replacement may be necessary even after changing the alternator and battery. Additionally, faulty wiring harnesses can cause voltage issues, preventing the alternator from charging the battery effectively. The challenge is exacerbated when the wiring harness is out of production, making it difficult to find a suitable replacement part. Consequently, owners facing this issue are advised to explore alternative solutions or consult with a qualified mechanic for effective resolution.
